Arsenal legend Paul Merson has claimed that Chelsea are Liverpool’s biggest threat in the Premier League title race.

The Blues beat Tottenham 4-3 on Sunday to move within four points of the Reds, who saw their game at Everton called off on Saturday.

They are also two points ahead of Arsenal, who were held to a 1-1 draw at Fulham earlier in the day.

Speaking on Sky Sports, Merson said: “It’s a massive result. This is Chelsea’s biggest game of the season—go to Tottenham and win, four points behind Liverpool.

“They’re in the title race and are Liverpool’s biggest threats. They haven’t got European football; they’ve got another team for that.”
